Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of
the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.
Let x be the amount of time in hours
Let y be the heoght of a candle in centimeters
The two points are then as (9,24.5) and (23,17.5).
Now plug in x=21, we get
Thus the height of the candle after 21 hours is 18.5 centimeters.
Answer:
101.7 ft I think
Step-by-step explanation:
5 1/3 times 2 is 10.7
4 3/4 time 2 is 9.5
10.7 times 9.5 is 101.65
The six becomes a 7 to make 101.7
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>1. x² + 4 = (x+2)² </h3>
<h3> : x² + 4 = x² + 4 (Yes)</h3>
<h3>2. (2x+6)²= 4(x+3)²</h3>
<h3> : 4x²+36 = 4x² + 36 ( Yes)</h3>
<h3>3. (x-3)(x-3)= (x-9)² (NO)</h3>
<h3>beacause , True statement is</h3><h3> (x+3)(x-3)= (x-9)²</h3>
<h3>4. x²-10x+25 = (x-5)(x+5) (No)</h3>
<h3> : x²-2x+y² = (a-b)(a+b) </h3>
<h3>Therefore, its not true statement!</h3>
2x + 4y = 14
4x + y = 20......multiply by -4
----------------
2x + 4y = 14
-16x - 4y = -80 (result of multiplying by -4)
---------------add
-14x = -66....as u can see, ur y's cancel out
so ur answer is : 1st answer choice <==
** and just so u know, u could have multiplied the 1st equation by -2, and it would have cancelled out ur x's
